Charron and Port de Pave

Les Tracteurs de Port de Pave

Just north of Marsilly is Charron and its Port de Pave. Port de Pave is at the point where the river, Le Sevre Noirtaise meets the bay, Le Baie de l'Aiguilon. The port serves the needs of the mussel and oyster fishermen / farmers and consists of a broad concrete runway that dips into the bay/river enabling the launching and collection of the specialist craft used in the activity. Such launching requires a tractor and on this trip there was a fine collection of tractor on show. I am now searching the shops for a copy of I-Spy Tractors but no luck so far.
